This spot is close to the switchbacks off FR4550, quite a bit below the SF Mtn trail at this point. Don, I think you and Donovan actually found this segment first.

I thought that the CST started at the old ranger station?  Don't both trails take off from there?  SFM continues south, and the CST kind of heads SE?

Anyway, here is my next posting.  This photo was taken from a well known abandoned trail in the district.  Where was I?

That's pretty easy Rob.

Did this one get burnt last year?

my first guess is the trail by the confluence of the SF

How about Sounds of Two Rivers Trail? 

That last photo I thought was the trail going down to the Cold Springs  guard station from the 4540 road which would have been the SFM trail, because Brian was talking about a spring nearby.
